Louise Michel, the French anarch- ist, would do the poor real service if she would distribute among them the far famed remedy known as Whites Cream Vermifuge, the best preparation in the world for worms. It moves them speedily, and there is no other remedy which possesses its virtues of purity, promptness and efficacy. Use Whites Cream Vermi- fuge, and no other.

Ringing Noises

in the ears, sometimes roaring, bug zing sound, are caused by catarrh, that exceedingly disagreeable and very common disease. Loss of smell or hearing also result from catarrh. Hoods Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier, is a peculiarly successful remedy for this disease, which it cures by purifying the blood. If you suffer from catarrh, try Hoods Sar- saparilla, the peculiar medicine.

How Captain Gambler of Georgia
Used to Address His Soldiers.
A Gainesville (Ga.) dispatch announces
the death Of Captain Daniel q. Gambler Of
the famous Banks County Guards. When
the war broke out the Banks County boys
organized company, and an odd company
1t was, entirely democratic in Its makeup,
and with little respect for shoulder-straps.
As 1t was necessary to have captain, the
local schoolmaster, Daniel q. Gambler, was
elected to that office. Captain Gambler
knew the Importance of his ofIlce. but hc
also knew the nature Of his men, and
adopted q military code Of his own, which,
while not approved by military tacticiaus,
was the only code which the Banks County
Guards would recognize.
"Gentlemen,o the Captain would say,
"you will be kind enough to accompany
me into the battle tomorrow"
"Gcntlemen, please come to attention" T"
"swing around, like a gate-swing
"March oblique, like worm fence"
"In a straight line, like later row

UTILITY OF THE BUsrLE.

Her ma said her boots were too high in the
heel,
But no other style she would wear.
One day while out walking she stepped on
apeel
OF banana, and uttering an ear.plercing

She franticly clutched at the air.
Her hustle was rubber, inflated OF course,
The fashion prevailing to meet.
And II turned out to be OF her safety tho
source,
For when she sat down on the sidewalk with
forco
She bounded right back to her feet.
In the foregoing maidens who stylish boots
wear,
This moral will easily 1nd:
When sidewalks are Icy, or out OF repair,
A hustle Of rubber, inflated with afr,
Is handy to carry behind.

one uundred ana Seventeen.

A case of remark able longevity, says the
Dallas (Tex.) Ne,us, is that Of Frank Hicks,
colored, residing within ten miles of Nc
Kinney, over whose remarkable head one
hundred and seventeen summers have rolled.
The evidence OF his age is afforded by bill
OF salg from slave trader to +. H. Welch,
dated 1850, aud certifying that Hicks was
eighty years old. Hicks, though little
bent, is In perfect health, not looking day
over seventy, aud giving hope of lasting
another quarter Of u century, or TO see one
huudted aud forty-two years. When sold
to MIR. Wclcb, he was thrown 10 with
his wife; but In the thirtyseven years
that have slrce elapsed, he has never failed
OF doing mans work at hoeing, and this
year, with the aid OF his wife, now In her
gOtn year, he has harvested eight bales OF
cotton, which he sold In Mckinney last
week. by his present wife Hicks had li-
teen children, thirteen OF whom are living,
and by his former wives be had many chill
dren-ke says the good Lord only knows
the number-some uf whom, II they are
yet living, must bo centenarians. His searly
fsmilies were born iu South Carolina, TO
which he was brought In SLAYER when only

A Chronic Tendency Overcome.


Many persons are troubled with chrouic
tendency to constipation. They are Of bill
ious temperament. The complaint to which
they are subject, though easily remediable
by judicious treatment, Is In many cases ag-
gravated by resort to drastic purgatives
and cholagogues. AS the human stomach
and bowels are lined with a delicate mem
brane, and not with vulcanite, they cannot
stand prolonged drenching with such medi-
cines without serious injury. Nothing re-
stores and counteracts an habitual tendency
to constipation so efrectually as Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Its laxative effect is gentle
and progressive. 1t neither convulses nor
weakens the intestines, and Its effects are
unaccomp psnied by gripping pains. 1t
arouses the liver when the organ Is sluggish,
promotes digestion and encourages appetite
and sleep. For fever and ague, kidney
troubles, nervous complaints and inciplent
rheumatism, II is Incompatible. Take a
wineglass before meals and see how soon
you will relish them.
